Don't worry, I'm sure our friendly, fascist techno-overlords at Google will apply their new, arbitrary evaluation of what is and isn't "explicit" in an unbiased manner that will only protect our children and certainly won't be used as an excuse to target women, people of color, and queer folks.

Your submission in "Multiple Major ASMR Accounts Suddenly Removed From YouTube Over ‘Explicit Content’" was removed for The myth that poor, innocent men are the victims of vile women has always been a justification to discriminate against women and ban them from public life.
